once upon a time (47 lbs ago) my breakfast was two raisin bread toasts with nutella! yummmy!!! but alas - lifestyle change. Most weekdays it's a smoothie... If I'm doing aquafit in the morning I'll have some quinoa crispbread with peanut butter before the work out - smoothie after... weekends I can change it up and have…

smoothies are fast and easy and I love them!!! I freeze everything - in ziplocs - so every morning I choose what I'm in the mood for... base liquids can be unsweetened almond milk, low sugar drinkable yogurt or water... I don't ever use ice cubes - but all the ingredients are frozen... kale, spinach or swiss chard,…

get everything organized the night before - lay out what you'll wear - what you need to bring. get to bed earlier! I know it takes a while to get used to - but trust me - if you are exercising on 4 hours of sleep it will suck more! eat a little something before you go - and don't forget your water. let us know how it goes!

I had it so bad once I wound up with xrays at the emergency to be told I was full of poop! I had been having small bm's so I didn't think that was it - but I was also bloated, extended, and nauseous ... I add Benefiber powder and Ultra-Fiber pills a few times a day as well as drink 12 plus cups of water a day and aim for…

I did the same research - couldn't justify the price difference for the Vitamix though... I bought the nutribullet - and loved what it did - except after 6 months the motor died on me... So I know have the Ninja Professional which has the big jug which I puree soups in etc... as well as two individual serving sized cups…

sorry about your cat. it's hard when we lose a family member. good for you for realizing that you need the meds - you can find a way to lose weight while on them. that is a big range of possible caloric goals - I would suggest somewhere between 1,700 and 2,000 - see how you feel. if you're starving and unable to reach the…

You need to have water near you to drink it... I have two 3 cup Contigo's in my fridge at home and at work... I try to have one with me or at my desk whenever possible. I refill with filtered water in both places.... I like it cold - that's why when I finish one - I refill and switch it with the one in the fridge. I will…

I am on a mostly low carb diet, eating healthy meats and fats, and a load of fresh veggies... drink at least 12 glasses a day - but I still need to supplement to have regular unpainful b.m's... I add Benefibre clear powder to my smoothies in the morning, and take ultra-fiber pill supplements as well once or twice a day. I…

Hi! I don't have diabetes but hubby does... I went low carb a year ago and am 5 lbs away from my weight loss goal of. 50 lbs... For over. 15 years I was told I have IBS but 80% of those daily tummy issues were gone after cutting back on carbs... For me I have been loosely following Jorge Cruise's The 100 diet... Loosely…
